Search scheme for the genome-wide survey. A schematic representation of the search method for the GWS has been represented in this figure. Starting from 437 structure-centric and 746 sequence-centric RBP families, a library of 1183 RBP family HMMs were built. These mathematical profiles were then used to search proteomes of 19 different E. coli strains (16 pathogenic and three non-pathogenic strains). It is to be noted here that the same search scheme has been used later to extend the study to all 166 available E. coli proteomes in the RefSeq database as of May 2016 (see text for further details)
